"Hmph, Su Bai sent you here, right? Bastard, since he sent you here, he shouldn't be too far away. Su Bai, you bastard, get out here! "
Wei Hao harrumphed angrily as he swept his vicious gaze across the crowd. He had no need to be polite to Su Bai. Since this fellow dared to send someone here to cause trouble, he shouldn't blame him for being impolite.
"Don't spout nonsense here. Our gongzi didn't even come here. Besides, the one who invited us is your brother, Wang Chong. What does it have to do with us?! "
The guard from the Duke Su Public House sneered and said rudely.
The order he received was to disrupt Wang Chong's operation as much as possible. No matter what he did, he couldn't be allowed to succeed. However, even if he didn't know, Duke Su's original intention was for him to take a look and interact with Wang Chong to understand what was going on.
However, it was a pity that Su Bai's selfishness got the better of him. He changed the order to disrupt Wang Chong's operation, regardless of the cost.
"Wang Chong, Su Bai must be up to no good by sending this bastard here. Say the word and I'll chase him out for you! "
Wei Hao angrily squeezed his way through the crowd and rushed to Wang Chong's side.
He and Wang Chong had grown up together, so he knew everything in the Wang Residence like the back of his hand. However, Wei Hao was still able to distinguish the occasion.
This gathering was initiated by Wang Chong. In such a formal occasion, regardless of whether the other party was welcome or here to cause trouble, only Wang Chong could make the decision.
"Enough."
Wang Chong chuckled lightly as he pulled the furious Wei Hao aside.
"Calm down, I was the one who invited Duke Su's man."
"What?!"
Wei Hao, who was still fuming a moment ago, was dumbfounded when he heard those words. He had always thought that Su Bai sent someone here to cause trouble.
He didn't expect that it was actually Wang Chong who invited him here.
"Haven't you always been at odds with him? Why did you invite him over? "
Wei Hao had a look of disbelief on his face. He had not expected the truth to be like this.
"Hehe, I'll tell you later."
Wang Chong said with a smile, but he didn't say anything.
The matter in the southwest was a national grudge, but the matter between him and Su Bai, the matter between the Wang Clan and the Su Clan, was a personal grudge. Compared to what was about to happen in the southwest, what did personal grudges count for?
As long as it could be beneficial to what he was about to do, as long as it could help this empire that was in a precarious situation and facing a huge crisis, as well as the millions of people living on this land, everything else was not important to Wang Chong.
"Humph, Wang Chong, don't bother with this bastard. Isn't it just a dozen or so True Martial Realm experts? Our Bai Family may not have much, but we do have a lot of these experts! "
All of a sudden, a voice sounded from the crowd, and Bai Siling walked out of the crowd on her tiptoes. Her slender neck was raised high, and she exuded the allure of a young lady.
As she walked toward Wang Chong, she even winked at Wang Chong a few times, seemingly carrying a deeper meaning.
"We were going to look for you. But it just so happens that you were sleeping. Furthermore, Bai Siling said that if you were to bring so many people with you, there would definitely be people who would cause trouble. So, she told us not to rush to meet them and to sneak over here first. "
Wei Hao approached Wang Chong and whispered.
Even though he rarely stayed in the training camp, he had more or less seen the faces of the people around Wang Chong. He knew of the Bai Clan's intelligent and crafty Bai Siling.
"Hehe, if Wang gongzi needs something, count our Xu Clan in as well!"
On the other side, Xu Gan cooperated with Bai Siling and walked out of the crowd. He wasn't as high-profile as Bai Siling, but he only needed to cooperate from the side.
"Haha, count us in as well!"
A fiery cloud flashed by. Zhao Yatong, dressed in red and with a red dot on her forehead, was a bewitching beauty. She lost no time in walking out of the crowd.
"Buzz!"
Be it the Xu Clan or the Zhao Clan, both of them were influential clans in the capital. Not to mention, Bai Siling's Bai Clan was one of the oldest clans in the capital, and in terms of influence, it was on par with the Wang Clan.
The crowd buzzed with activity as these three clans stepped forward. It was clear that none of them had expected this.
Great clans always had their reasons for doing things. If it wasn't beneficial, they would never do something like this. For many clans, when they were hesitating, they only needed to look at the actions of the most influential clans.
Without a doubt, the appearance of Bai Siling, Zhao Yatong, and Xu Gan, as well as their powerful support, had a major impact on the crowd.
Some of the smaller clans were also moved.
"Wait a moment! Hmph, if I'm not wrong. Bai Siling, Zhao Yatong, Xu Gan, all of you are Wang Chong's friends. If you want to help him … there's no problem. But we don't need it! "
The Duke of Su's bodyguard hurriedly shouted,
"Furthermore, those who can appear here, which family isn't extremely wealthy? And many of those experts were personally raised by us with great effort. There are also some that we hired from outside at a high price. If we give them to you, wouldn't that be helping our Wang Clan make a wedding dress?! I know that you, Wang Chong, sold the spirit vein for money, but no matter how much you pay, we won't sell it! "
The Duke Su's Protector said with an unperturbed expression. With his interference, many people in the hall once more began to hesitate.
The status and identity of a great clan was extraordinary, and they played a decisive role among the great clans of the capital. However, if Bai Siling, Zhao Yatong, and Xu Gan were Wang Chong's good friends, then this matter was naturally a different matter.
In the end, what Wang Chong was borrowing from them was not pots and pans, gold, silver, or other treasures. For many clans, top-class experts were related to their clan's resources and could not be easily lent out.
Damn it, how does this fellow know Bai Siling, Zhao Yatong, and Xu Gan?
Wei Hao cursed in his heart.
This fellow seemed to have steeled his heart to make trouble.
"Ha, who said I was buying with gold and silver?"
Wang Chong indifferently said.
"Is that not the case?"
The guards of Duke Su's Public House immediately responded with tit for tat and mocked back. Gold and silver? Treasures? To the other great clans, these things were not very attractive.
As for status, the Wang Clan could not provide it.
Wang Chong only faintly smiled, not arguing with him. His gaze turned to the people from the various clans in the hall.
"First of all, I thank everyone for coming. Then, I didn't say it in the letter because words alone have no basis. If you don't hear it from my own mouth, I trust that none of you will have much confidence in the following transaction. "
Wang Chong paused for a moment, his expression calm and unhurried, exuding an infectious air.
"There's no free lunch in this world. Since I'm asking the various clans for help, I naturally can't be borrowing it for free. So, everyone can decide for yourselves. "
"I need everyone present to lend me the strongest guards of your clans. The requirement is that they must be at least Tier 4 or 5 of the True Martial realm. I only need them for three months. During this period of three months, everyone must listen to my commands. And after three months, these guards will naturally return to your clans! And as for the price … "
Wang Chong paused, and for a moment, the hall was so quiet that one could hear a pin drop. Everyone's eyes were focused on Wang Chong.
Even the Duke Su Residence guard who had been making trouble this entire time was holding his breath, a look of concern on his face.
Wang Chong had just clearly denied that he would spend money to borrow True Martial realm experts from the various clans, but what everyone present was curious about was how Wang Chong was able to get them to agree to the transfer of experts from their clans if it wasn't for money.
Given the status of the great clans in the capital, there truly weren't many things that could attract them.
"A WuZi Steel weapon!"
Under the expectant gazes of the crowd, Wang Chong slowly extended a finger.
"For three months, for every True Martial Tier 4 or 5 martial artist that is transferred, you can obtain a WuZi Steel weapon from me. Once these three months are over, whether or not I've completed my task, you will obtain a WuZi Steel weapon from me! And of course, there will also be the guards of your residence! "
"Buzz!"
The moment Wang Chong finished speaking, the hall fell silent for a long time.
"Wang Chong, you've gone mad!"
The first to react was Wei Hao, his eyes wide as he stared in disbelief at Wang Chong. No! It wasn't just disbelief, it was complete panic.
"How can we give them a WuZi Steel weapon? And for three months at that? Take back what you just said. "
"That's right, Wang Chong. WuZi Steel weapons are currently priceless. You can't buy them even if you want to. If you need some top-class experts, we can think of a way to help you. There's no need to do this. "
Bai Siling was also stunned.
Not even she had expected that Wang Chong had gathered so many people just to propose this sort of deal. The WuZi Steel sword was decisive and decisive, and it was said to be the king of weapons.
Not even Wang Chong himself had many of these things!
"Siling is right. Wang Chong, do you want to reconsider?"
Xu Gan also agreed.
From his perspective, no matter how he looked at it, Wang Chong was at a great disadvantage. This sort of deal was simply insane!
"Wang Chong, if you need help, I can also help. Our Zhao Clan is a military clan, and we've probably been involved in the military for even longer than your Wang Clan. In this aspect, our Zhao Clan can provide assistance. There's no need for you to ask them for help. "
Zhao Yatong walked up to Wang Chong's side.
"No!"
Before Wang Chong could reply, someone below the stage grew anxious.
"The Wang Clan is still a clan of ministers and generals. Words spoken cannot be taken back. Since you've already made a promise, you cannot go back on it! "
As soon as the voice fell, a somewhat arrogant figure squeezed through the crowd and walked out. It was not the guard from the Duke of Su's residence, but someone else.
"Bastard! Su Bai, it's you! "
